An Easy Pink Eye Look

It’s been so long since I did a makeup tutorial on the blog that I thought it was about time I came up with something different to a warm smokey eye for the day to day. For this look, which is super easy, I used the Modern Renaissance palette by Anastasia Beverly Hills. I don’t need to go on about how much I adore this palette, so lets just get into the look!

As usual, I will list the products I used on my face, as it rarely changes:

Too Faced Hangover X Primer

Marc Jacobs Glow Stick in 01

Kat Von D Foundation in 41 Light Neutral

Collection Concealer in Fair

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder

RCMA No Colour Powder

Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting Powder in Light

Mac Desert Rose Blush

Becca Moonstone Highlight

To create this super quick and easy look, I used only three shadows from the palette. First, after applying my eyeshadow primer, I packed on the shade Tempera so that it would mattify and smoothen the base for easy eyeshadow application.

In the crease, I took Venetian Red. I wanted this look to be more red than pink, but Venetian Red is the perfect middle ground. I used this in the crease and outer v as well, just to give some shape to it. Using the edge of the brush, I softly pulled it out at the edges for a cat eye effect.

For the lid itself I used a little bit of Buon Fresco, which at first I didn’t think would look that great but it actually compliments quite well.

On the inner corner and brow bone, I ofcourse used the shade Vermeer, one of the prettiest shimmers in here. And that is all for this eye look. As simple as that!

To finish the look off I popped some NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk in the water line to open up the eyes, some liner on the top and some mascara.

Lastly, for lipstick, I chose the Kylie Cosmetics Posie K. This matched exceptionally well with the eye colours and I love the way it looks!

And with that, this tutorial is done! I hope you like this look, it’s something a little bit different and makes a change from the boring browns and golds that I’m used to gravitating towards on the daily!
